Bilayer rectifiers were made by reduction of diazonium salt of an electron acceptor molecule (e.g. naphthale diimide derivative) onto the bottom contact surface as a multilayer, followed by reduction of diazonium salt of an electron donor molecule (e.g. bithiophene derivatice) as a multilayer on top of the acceptor multilayer. The I-V characteristics of the resulting donor-acceptor organic rectifiers show rectification ratio of over 100 using carbon as both contacts. The detailed I-V characteristics will be discussed alog with electron transport discussion.
